Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sasaki Envy Green 18-Inch Art Glass Platter
Customer Review: ~~Sometimes size matters~~
Summary: 3 Stars
first~this item is really huge....check your tape measure; 18 1/4"...make sure you have a surface to display this piece.
The item is hand blown...which is an artistic way to express that each item is unique. This is true, but, part of the uniqueness is lopsidedness, color variations that are not organic...lines of purple that were meant to be blended, but didn't.
It is a substantial piece, that is pleasing to the eye and has heft.
The price of this item has fluctuated radically....under $20, it is a steal. At $60+ take your chances. The colors are more monochromatic than noted on other reviews.
Sometimes size matters~
Customer Review: Beautiful Piece
Summary: 5 Stars
The item is beautiful; large and a great color. You need in inspect it when it arrives. I ordered several and 2 arrived broken - aparently UPS's fault. Amazon was very helpful and sent replacements immediately, but I'm fortunate that I inspected them upon arrival. Had I just left them in the cartons I think I would have been out of luck. Customer Review: Beautiful design
Summary: 5 Stars
Pictures do not do justice for this item. I was thoroughly surprised when it arrived. You kinda have to look at it three or four times to catch all the different ways that it reflects and refracts the light. It's so nice it should literally be a piece of art in and of itself, instead of a platter.Customer Review: Oops!
Summary: 2 Stars
I received the Sasaki Envy Green Art Glass Platter FREE with the purchase of a flatware set. (Seems petty of me to write a critical review, doesn't it?) However, I really didn't read the product information carefully when I took advantage of the promotional offer. (Free is hard to beat!)
I did note that the platter was for decorative purposes only and figured it was leaded glass. As a purely decorative item, the platter is interesting and the color is a stunning Envy Green. What I did not take full consideration of is the enormity of the platter. It is HUGE! Okay, it clearly says it is an 18-Inch Art Glass Platter. This should have been a clue. But in the freebie frenzy, it did not register that it would not fit in any cabinet or storage area that I have and there is no place in the house that it can safely adorn.
Be sure you have a place for it (or a friend to give it to) if you take advantage of the flatware deal!
